just a tiny fix

trade was done pre-misc update

it's more accurate to use the (outdated) price from back then,which is 9.5

I clicked the link and still have no idea wat r u trying to do.

giang tries updating the antlers (9 buds) > also suggests a new price for the modest > modest gets accepted at (9) due to that sale (no overpay)

trade was done pre-misc > new price is irrelevant > old price of 9.5~ is more accurate

do you get it now ?

You might want to put them up in your suggestion desc.

And the antlers price suggestion might be resuggested at 9-10 buds so it would be the same as the pre-misc price. I would wait with this suggestion for the antlers.

nobody should have accepted the last modest suggestion tho

just saying

the price of the antlers before and after the change to misc is the same

9-10 = 9.5

If the price has dropped since becoming a misc, then who knows how much the HAT dropped while it was outdated.

9 might be inaccurate, but in no way is this better.

but it didn't drop

1 sold at 11, 1 sold at 10.5

rarely bumped at b/o 9 (which is why he is trying to lower it to 9)

i'd have less arguments if the antlers was accepted first,then the modest. but the antlers suggestion is still going

Well, regardless, 9.5 is still an arbitrary number based on that, then.

and 9 isn't arbitrary ?

9 is also arbitrary.

Just because the last suggestion was bad doesn't make this one any better. Two wrongs don't make a right.

why then put a lower arbitrary price

if it does make a difference,it's unfair to the owner of the hat

if it doesn't make a difference as bp.tf is just a guideline,it can just as well be 9.5

But it's still an invalid suggestion.

And the only reason your price is 'less wrong' is a moral consideration, apparently.

We don't do those.

i agree you lack moral considerations.

and empathy too.

suit yourself,it's just my 2 cents.

Suggestions shouldn't be about opinion, shouldn't be about 'your 2 cents'. Whenever a newbie comes on and starts with the 'i think's, we come down on them like a sack of hammers.

But when it's more subtle, people get away with it.

this is not a "i think it's 9.5 buds"

it shouldn't have been "updated" with the antlers in the 1st place

it should have remained at 9.8-10.5

but that's impossible now

So antlers are selling for 9-10 after they became misc and you are valuing them at the same amount before they became misc? That makes zero sense.

Sales just before they became misc:

http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/20618098 - 9 pure at the time

http://backpack.tf/profiles/76561197995772998?time=1406790000 - silver cyclone high 5 + aces handle. Even we take the high 5 at its b/o of 8 (no way is it 8 - http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/21602385), that's a sale at 8.6

Only two sales within 2 months of the sale in question here, so the antlers would likely have been priced somewhere around 8-9 at the time of the sale. The last suggestion was accepted as a conservative bump down. 9 may still be too high.
